Work in Progress - Magazine Front Cover Creation
Step 1:
During Filming day we took this picture with the intention to show off the main character’s traits so how he is
irresponsible, immature, impetuous. Showing off this character will set the tone, mood and atmosphere for the
rest of the characters so it leaves people assuming what the other characters will be like. The fact that the
picture involves alcohol this paints a picture for the reader about what activities our characters will get up to.
We left the setting, background unchanged because we want to show off what the setting of our film actually
is so if we had a white background people would be left assuming and we don't want our audience to walk
into the cinema, after seeing the front cover with a white background, to assume that this is just some guy
who has gone on a night out so a party gone wrong type of movie.
This picture was chosen because it didn’t leave people with not much of an idea about what our film is about
and it shows enough so people can make assumptions and these assumptions won’t be ones that we don’t
want for example a movie about a night out or party.
Step 1:
Step 2:
This involved editing the picture in order to get our main character in the correct layer so we can put the magazine titles
behind him thus creating a realistic looking magazine. Which will be seen in step 3.
Step 3:
This step started off with finding our chosen magazine company’s logo and a png so it has no
background.
Next we had to get this image into the correct layer so it appeared behind our character since we don’t
want to hide our character since this is important for our message is to show him off in order to get
people thinking about what to expect from our film.
Originally the Total Film logo was black and so changing it white looks a lot better as it makes our
character stand out a bit more.
Step 3:
Step 4:This step began with finding the skyline however it was easier to just type it out instead. This gives the
impression that we have an active magazine which adds to its realism.
Step 5:
This step involved the addition of the barcode and the issue date. Our barcode needed to be in the correct
layer and needed to be in front of the character in order to actually scan the barcode however nothing
important is covered up so this is fine. The issue date of our magazine this is done by text once again in
white in order to make our character stand out.
Step 5:
Step 6:
So this is the final product. We added a couple of quotes to add to the realism of
our magazine, these are just made up quotes. We added our film title in the
centre to make it stand out against our character, the addition of a rhetorical
question makes the reader think about our movie and will make them want to
read about the film in the interview.
This is emphasized by the exclusive interview in red so it's important and the
main article of the magazine so it makes it out to be a must read.
‘From Hero to Zero’ this addition tells the reader that there are other articles in
the magazine and this on the front cover adds a realistic effect that our
magazine front cover is legit.
The final product:
